All About AMMONITE Gemstones

What is the Meaning of Ammonite?

down icon

The word "ammonite" comes from the name of the ram-headed god Ammon who was a popular figure in ancient Egyptian art. The ammonite fossil shell resembles the curled horns of a ram, which most likely contributed to its identification with this deity. Later, the Greeks borrowed this phrase and called the fossil "ammonis cornua," which translates to "horns of Ammon." Through the ages, this term remained, eventually evolving into the current name for these extinct marine animals and their petrified remains.

The spiral pattern of the ammonite, which represents development and evolution, is a symbol of ancient wisdom. In the midst of life's changes and difficulties, it promotes balance and harmony by providing protection and grounding energies. This fossilized treasure connects us to the cyclical cycles of reality and acts as a portal to the divine, promoting intuition and creativity.

What Does an Ammonite Stone Look Like?

An ammonite stone has a characteristic chambered structure and resembles a coiled, spiral-shaped fossil. Its exterior is primarily made of fossilized shell material, whose color can range from dark brown to vivid iridescent hues, depending on the exact minerals that replaced the original biological material during the fossilization process. The interior chambers frequently have complex, ribbed patterns that were previously home to the extinct aquatic organism. Ammonite stones exhibit a magnificent range of hues when polished or cut, with iridescent flashes resembling those of opal or mother-of-pearl. This distinctive gemstone exhibits a fusion of organic craftsmanship and primordial awe, making it a coveted object for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
